Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.

Jim Fehlig dd00c3f6c9 libxl: fix libvirtd segfault
Commit d72ef888 introduced a bug in the libxl driver that will
segfault libvirtd if libxl reports an error message, e.g. when
attempting to initialize the driver on a non-Xen system.  I
assumed it was valid to pass a NULL logger to libxl_ctx_alloc(),
but that is not the case since any errors associated with the ctx
that are emitted by libxl will dereference the logger and crash
libvirtd.

Errors associated with the libxl driver-wide ctx could be useful
for debugging anyway, so create a 'libxl-driver.log' to capture
these errors.

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
